OBITUARY

MRS. HERMAN EISSENLOHR.

Anna Olson was born at Jewell, Ia., June 23, 1881, died July 14, 1909, aged 28 years and 21 days.

At the age of 15 she was confirmed and joined the Lutheran church of which she was a loyal member, always taking her Bible as her companion.

On Feb 27, 1907 she was united in marriage to Herman Eisenlohr. To them was born a daughter on the second day of Jan., 1908.

A short funeral service was held at their home near Havana, N. D., on July 15, after which the remains were brought to Jewell and buried by the side of her mother on July 17.

Besides a husband and little daughter she leaves an aged father at Jewell, a brother at Marmon, N. D., many relatives and friends wherever she was known mourn her early departure.

She had been ailing for the last three years, but the last three months was failing rapidly. She was conscious to the last, and after bidding her folks good-bye, she said "Jesus I am coming," then soon passed away.
